Made this tonight for dinner. My kids said that it was BEST salad they ever tasted and asked to have it every night. After reading the other reviews, I tried to find red onions; however, my store was out of them. Instead, I used onion crisps. It was perfect as it added a little crunch to the salad. 
This recipe is not only healthy, it's cost effective and absolutely delicious!

This was simple, healthy and really damn good. I added some red onion. Yum.

Great tasting and easy to make. I also added a few red onions. Will absolutely make again. Highly reccomend.

LOVED this! I marinated for four hours and it was perfect.

Make ahead instructions: Almost all of these salads can be made ahead of time. My biggest suggestion is to store the ingredients separately from the dressing, and toss when ready to serve. To prep ahead of time, you can chop up all the ingredients and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

How to store: If you do have leftovers, most salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Refer to the specific recipe post for complete storing instructions.

How to customize. Most salad recipes are versatile and completely customizable. You can add in different vegetables or add in extra protein such as grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, salmon, or tofu.
